That is what they have asked for...not a massive US intervention or US ground forces.
Again, that is what the US has done by freezing $32 billion in Libyan assets under US jurisdiction and making it illegal for U.S. citizens or companies to do business with any of the 16 companies that control those assets that are under Libyan government control or ownership.
The freezing of those assets was the the largest amount of foreign assets ever seized in an American sanctions action....and the US is exploring ways in which those assets can be used to support the anti-government groups in Libya.

Good points.... I guess we have done all we honestly could then. So our consciences can rest easy now. And the citizenry have no right to be mad for the last 20 some years we have allowed this to go on and allowed that treasure chest to build up to 32 billion dollars.
